I've figured it out now. Instead of using $useDbConfig, I decided to use var $tablePrefix = 'beta_'; This way, I can pick and choose exactly which tables I keep, and which I separate. Upon doing this though, cake insisted that my beta_updates table did not exist, when it clearly did. To fix this problem, I searched and found that if you clear the contents of your app/tmp/cache/models/ folder, cake will rebuild all associations and database configurations on the next refresh, fixing that problem.
